I wish people would go back to understanding that “gaslighting” is a specific phenomenon, and what 99% of what people describe online as gaslighting is a 1-2 combination of remembering things differently, and the other party lying to themselves to feel better about past them. I had a friend who regularly rewrote past…

I won’t believe it’s a Chicago thing till I see on TV.  

Ditto, except 28 years.

Could you dig deeper into how an FHA loan is a scam to keep people poor? Particularly in the case where most people are doing it because they want to take advantage of that 3.5% down payment. Assuming that a person is able to get a conventional loan, they’re going to be required to have PMI until the loan seasons, AND…

“Abnormal” because “hemorrhagic” is really hard to spell.

Then when the inevitable neo-nazi/proud boy counter protests occur, have LOADS of BLM protestors in their vehicles with radios along the park, communicating with each other actively. When the racist…

Northwestern Medical Center isn’t offering vaccine cards. They say it will show up on their app that you have been vaccinated. I had them fill out my WHO International Certification of Vaccination or Prophylaxis card since I hope to travel internationally some day and don’t want some customs agent overseas trying to…

“This is the fifth shooting death of a student at Austin-East this year”

Cyclists can’t win. They ride on the street and people bitch and then ultimately run them over, so they move to the sidewalk and people bitch, so they’ll probably move back to the street and get run over.

Ah, I see even site writers are plagued by the wild kinja bug that just decides to randomly re-arrange words.
